"The Michigan acreage
is listed at 391,000 acres
with a projected yield ofn
12 bags per acre. I think
that may be an
overestimate."
Broadwell said the
Ontario acreage is up
about 18 per cent to 92,875
acres.
The Ontario yield
estimates range from 12
bags per acre in Elgin
where water damage was
suffered to a high 'of 18
bags in Kent.' Perth and
Middlesex were listed at
15 and Huron from 14 to
17, 100 pound bags per
_acre -
"Put this altogether
and we are looking at 15
bags per acre and a total

of 1,400;000 bags, an in-
crease of about 200,000
bags from a year ago,".
